Tympani

With the absence

Of feelings so

Are the absence

Of words I

Am nothing more

Than a steel

Drum expressing the

Tinniest and whiniest

Of heart beats

But soon I

Will again be

The tympani of

New found love

Deep resonant full

Forget

The only reason

That memories of

You still hurt

Is because I

Haven’t made any

New ones with

Him yet not

That I’ve met

Him either but

I know that

I will just

Like I know

That I will

Forget you then

Thought

The hardest part

Of ending it

Is losing the

Certainty that you

Exist preciously in

Someone else’s thought

Without living there

Does one really

Live at all

I need to

Think that I

Occupy a space

Somewhere beyond myself

DragonDawn

I so enjoy

The hour before

Dawn when night

Is deeply dark

And thick with

Sleep when all

Except the truly

Courageous remain bedded

Those strong with

Hope take arms

And slay the

Night into morning

Watching it fall

From the sky

Like a dragon

OneHitWonders (to bean)

In the story

Of us there’s

No happy ending

No happily ever-after

You and I

Are simply a

Fade to black

And roll credits

As our friends

Quietly shuffle away

Entertained and sad

By our non-ending

Ending wondering if

There might be

A sequel but

Both of us

Are already committed

To new projects

You and I

One hit wonders
